Belonging originally to a family of farmers by profession, his mother was deeply driven that his son do good for millions of fellow farmers. It is amazing what the need for making a difference can do. Thus came into existence, Jain Irrigation Systems, with a capital of meager Rs 7000, which was the accumulated savings of 3 generations, in 1963. The company's mission, business vision and managerial expertise has turned the initial capital of Rs 7000 into a revenue of Rs 1424 crore. In their existence of 50+ years, the company has 10,000 employees working in 28 manufacturing plants across the globe (United States, Turkey, Switzerland, Ireland and others.), dedicated to achieving the company mission. The company has 50 flagship products spread across 9 product lines wholeheartedly devoted to ease the process of agriculture in India. Here is a video describing their company and their vision.<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iFfXUUnvWNQ" width="560"></iframe><br /><br /><b>Products of Jain Irrigation Systems :&nbsp;</b><br /><b><br /></b><b><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rgkqFawFBLc/V4D9_7CnpVI/AAAAAAAAABs/kpGh_6AmFP0aeHFR8Z5f8_m1ovvyJfLKACK4B/s1600/jaini.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="234" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rgkqFawFBLc/V4D9_7CnpVI/AAAAAAAAABs/kpGh_6AmFP0aeHFR8Z5f8_m1ovvyJfLKACK4B/s640/jaini.jpg" width="640" /></a></b><br /><b><br /></b><b>Financials :</b><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a><br /><b><br /></b>JISL is listed in NSE-Mumbai at JISLJALEQS &nbsp;and in BSE at code 500219.<br />Daily traded quantity is 42.37 lakh shares.<br />52 week high - 79<br />52 week low - 47<br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal">As the sales of the company’s products are directly related to the uncertainties of monsoon, the last two years have seen virtually no growth in sales, as those years monsoons have been well below average. However, the company managed to increase its profit for the year ending March-16 to Rs 71 crores mainly due to reduction in raw material cost. For the quarter ending March 16, the net profit has moved substantially higher at 64 crores. This is mainly&nbsp;due to the fact that this year ; 2016 -17 monsoon is expected to be above average and this expectation has led to higher yield on margin. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">On the Balance Sheet front, there hasn’t been any major changes in Long Term Assets and Labilities. The Current Assets ratio is at a reasonable level of 1.25. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b>Cash flows.</b></div><div class="MsoNormal">Cash Flow from business operations more or less remain the same as last year at approximately 500 crores. The company, it seems, had made sufficient investment since last four years, the fruits of which will probably be seen in the coming years.</div><div class="MsoNormal">As regards the financing activities, the company probably had to resort to more financing activities for the year ending 2013, 2014 and 2015 as these years had seen very weak monsoon and consequently very fluctuating sales. However for the year ending March 2015, there has been a decrease of 25% in financing activity compared to the earlier year ending March 2014. Hence this year; 2016-17, a substantial increase in cash flow from operations can be expected. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b>Equity Capital</b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Equity Capital of the company is held as below : </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;"></div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">1.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Promoters (including foreign promoters) – 32% (Approx)</span></li><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">2.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">FII – 32%</span></li><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">3.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Financial Institutions – 11%</span></li><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">4.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Banks and mutual funds – 3%</span></li><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">5.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Public – 17%</span></li><li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">6.</span><span style="font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">Others – 5%</span></li></ul><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><b>Conclusion </b>:&nbsp;</span><br /><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Considering all the above mentioned factors, I expect considerable increase in sales for the year 16-17 and consequently</span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">&nbsp;</span><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">increase in profits, and accordingly I expect the share price to move in the range of Rs 100 to Rs 120 in the medium term from the present price of Rs 74.

But does this analysis guarantee safety of funds? Not always.</div><div></div><div><div>On June 5th 2015, Indian Government banned Nestle India's flagship product, Maggi. It contained 17 times more lead than permitted. Nestle is the 33rd largest company India in terms of market capitalization. Amid the controversy, Nestle India's share prices fluctuated from Rs 7246.5 on 31st March 2015 to going as low as 5574.87 on 8th June, 2015. Falling off 1700 points in just 9 weeks is unpredictable. The fact that Indians were manipulated to consume 17 times more lead than permissible limit, remained covered for years and years together.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div>Or take the case of Amtek Auto, which has a fallout with CARE. On August 7th 2015, CARE suspended Amtek Auto of its AA- Investment rating as the company failed to furnish information for the monitoring of the rating. As a result of this controversy, the price of Amtek Auto tanked from Rs 350 on 13th July 2015 to Rs 100 on 17th august 2015. Its been on a continuous fall and closed at Rs 20.95 on 2nd October 2015.

It also emphasizes on decision to dis-invest a part of portfolio. This actually would &nbsp;help in more than one way. If proceeds from a stock are received after just one year of investment, it is treated as long term capital gain, which is tax free. It increases liquidity and funds can be deployed to safer investment avenues like Fixed Income, or if the sum received is large enough, it can be invested in property which in turn would fetch rental income. &nbsp;</div><div></div></div><div>In essence now:&nbsp;</div><div>It make sense to divest part of the portfolio, as all the scrips in the portfolio may not get impacted as above, and the value of the remaining part of the portfolio may increase in the due course of the time.</div><div><br /></div></div>Share Kuberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03190976464899043905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190639805441212470.post-69649036359783061032015-09-14T23:24:00.000-07:002015-09-14T23:26:29.039-07:005 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF WHILE INVESTING IN SHARES<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZKd93e5BKtU/Vfe4oxWFgrI/AAAAAAAAAAw/dV9d0Y03cwY/s1600/sm%2B2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="190" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZKd93e5BKtU/Vfe4oxWFgrI/AAAAAAAAAAw/dV9d0Y03cwY/s320/sm%2B2.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Indian Share Market is one interesting place.

Clearly, not everyone is aware of the important things to keep in mind while investing in shares.&nbsp;</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 13.5pt;">·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Are you a short term investor or a long term investor?&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></b></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">The first step is to determine if you would invest for a time span of a few months to an year (Short term) or for more than a year (Long term).&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 13.5pt;">·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">How much would you invest?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">That's a tough one. How much to invest? We either invest too much or too little. Ideally, it shouldn't be more than 25% of your liquid net worth. Btw Liquid Net worth is: Cash or cash equivalents - Short term liabilities. Say the value of &nbsp;your liquid assests is Rs 12,00,000 and &nbsp;your short term liabilities is Rs 5,00,000. So your liquid Net Worth would be (12,00,000-5,00,000) = 7,00,000 and 25% of this would be 1,75,000/-.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">According to me,&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">this is the ideal amount of investment.
